Ep. 4: When Your Child Mirrors Your Pain - Trauma Responses in Parenthood
Update: 2025-10-14
Description
When you leave an abusive relationship and become a single parent, healing takes on a new shape.
In this quiet reflection, Faustina shares how moving countries during pregnancy opened the door to clarity — and how her child’s emotions later became mirrors of her own unhealed pain.
This episode explores the real experience of parenting after trauma: the body memories, the panic, and the work of re-teaching yourself safety while caring for a child who depends on your calm.
Light in the Battle is a space for single mothers rebuilding after emotional abuse, finding peace, and learning to parent with ASD.
